9-3 became a miracle after the knot head know as CEO dabbled with of offense prior to the Troy debacle. In my eyes the man learned little from his Ole Miss tenure. Anyone sold on him at this point is delusional.

Why are we eating crow?

Because of the screenshots I posted, and the thousands of others who thought Orgeron would have this team in shambles, finishing with a losing record or as bad as 3-9. We went 9-3 instead.

We lost to Troy at home and got blown out by Mississippi state.

Correct. And then went 6-1 when thousands thought we would go 0-7.

Our coach is horrible and a three loss ceiling is and will be the ceiling as long as he is the coach.

Pretty stupid to call our coach horrible when half the SEC is firing theirs. Also pretty stupid to jump to that conclusion after only his first full season as our coach.

No need to eat crow.

No, still a good bit of need. Eat it and Geaux Tigers!

No, they were not. At the time leading up to the game, we were a 2 - 4 point underdog.


They closed as favorites.

I guess it is.

Are you really in your 50s?

I have a difficult time believing that someone in their 50s creates a username based on a GOT character and uses lmao as much as you do.

Not sure if you're aware, he was still the coach in charge when that 6-1 "miracle" occurred. Or does he only get credit for losses?

I said we would finish at least 8-4 after the Troy game, so I wasn't far off.

So terrible that two teams could be in the 4 team playoff? That kind of terrible?

At the time, the worry was perfectly reasonable. This is a ridiculous attempt at a gotcha.

No one is sold on O. I've supported the man because I'd rather have him than Miles and that boring azz offense and stubborn mentality....and because he's the current coach of LSU....a fact that none of us can change no matter how many times the Troy game is brought up.

How many head coaching vacancies in the SEC again?

ETA: Pussies downvoting facts. Classic.

4/6 SEC teams we beat have losing overall records. That kind of terrible. It's really not even up for debate that the SEC was down this year and our schedule was weaker overall than any in recent memory

A lot of you really do have a boat load of crow to eat. After Troy I still said 7-5 at worst. Did anyone ever consider Troy was a decent team and we got caught sleeping? It wasn't hard to recognize even then how down the SEC was. Wasn't difficult to predict there'd be more than 3 new coaching searches this offseason. Much less 5! Lsu made a bunch of teams asses quit. Good season but need to finish with 10 wins and a top 10 ranking

The SEC has the highest win pct in the country, it has 3 top 10 teams and 5 ranked teams. Js

It's only an attempt to show how wishy washy some of our "fans" can be, and the dozens or so in this thread still arguing that we had a bad season after a 6-1 finish is only strengthening that statement.

All I'm asking for here is an admittance that Orgeron, the staff, and especially the players saw their 3-2 record and didn't give up on their season like some of the "fans" gave up on them.

NO ONE is defending, or is even close to happy about the Troy loss. That one sucks and will sting for many, many years to come. That was back in September. Considering what we've seen from the team since, there is NO reason to be upset, and maybe you never really liked LSU football that much in the first place.

Wishy washy? I guess we should just shut this place down until the season is over. No point in commenting while it's in progress, right?

It wasn't that Troy wasn't decent or the team was sleeping. That much was obvious.

Anyone who says they knew just how bad Florida, Tennessee, Arkansas and aTm were going to be are full of shite. The only sure win remaining most people saw was Ole Miss.

At least not your incorrectly negative comments, that'd be nice
